Title: Structural basis for RNA-guided DNA degradation by Cas5-HNH/Cascade complex.

Abstract: Type I-E CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)-Cas (CRISPR-associated proteins) system is one of the most extensively studied RNA-guided adaptive immune systems in ...Type I-E CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)-Cas (CRISPR-associated proteins) system is one of the most extensively studied RNA-guided adaptive immune systems in prokaryotes, providing defense against foreign genetic elements. Unlike the previously characterized Cas3 nuclease, which exhibits progressive DNA cleavage in the typical type I-E system, a recently identified HNH-comprising Cascade system enables precise DNA cleavage. Here, we present several near-atomic cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of the Candidatus Cloacimonetes bacterium Cas5-HNH/Cascade complex, both in its DNA-bound and unbound states. Our analysis reveals extensive interactions between the HNH domain and adjacent subunits, including Cas6 and Cas11, with mutations in these key interactions significantly impairing enzymatic activity. Upon DNA binding, the Cas5-HNH/Cascade complex adopts a more compact conformation, with subunits converging toward the center of nuclease, leading to its activation. Notably, we also find that divalent ions such as zinc, cobalt, and nickel down-regulate enzyme activity by destabilizing the Cascade complex. Together, these findings offer structural insights into the assembly and activation of the Cas5-HNH/Cascade complex.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.

Thousand views of thousand structures

  • Yorodumi is a browser for structure data from EMDB, PDB, SASBDB, etc.
  • This page is also the successor to EM Navigator detail page, and also detail information page/front-end page for Omokage search.
  • The word "yorodu" (or yorozu) is an old Japanese word meaning "ten thousand". "mi" (miru) is to see.
